Inspiration for a timeless laundry room remodel in Other

An original 1930’s English Tudor with only 2 bedrooms and 1 bath spanning about 1730 sq.ft. was purchased by a family with 2 amazing young kids, we saw the potential of this property to become a wonderful nest for the family to grow. The plan was to reach a 2550 sq. ft. home with 4 bedroom and 4 baths spanning over 2 stories. With continuation of the exiting architectural style of the existing home. A large 1000sq. ft. addition was constructed at the back portion of the house to include the expended master bedroom and a second-floor guest suite with a large observation balcony overlooking the mountains of Angeles Forest. An L shape staircase leading to the upstairs creates a moment of modern art with an all white walls and ceilings of this vaulted space act as a picture frame for a tall window facing the northern mountains almost as a live landscape painting that changes throughout the different times of day. Tall high sloped roof created an amazing, vaulted space in the guest suite with 4 uniquely designed windows extruding out with separate gable roof above. The downstairs bedroom boasts 9’ ceilings, extremely tall windows to enjoy the greenery of the backyard, vertical wood paneling on the walls add a warmth that is not seen very often in today’s new build. The master bathroom has a showcase 42sq. walk-in shower with its own private south facing window to illuminate the space with natural morning light. A larger format wood siding was using for the vanity backsplash wall and a private water closet for privacy. In the interior reconfiguration and remodel portion of the project the area serving as a family room was transformed to an additional bedroom with a private bath, a laundry room and hallway. The old bathroom was divided with a wall and a pocket door into a powder room the leads to a tub room. The biggest change was the kitchen area, as befitting to the 1930’s the dining room, kitchen, utility room and laundry room were all compartmentalized and enclosed. We eliminated all these partitions and walls to create a large open kitchen area that is completely open to the vaulted dining room. This way the natural light the washes the kitchen in the morning and the rays of sun that hit the dining room in the afternoon can be shared by the two areas. The opening to the living room remained only at 8’ to keep a division of space.

This project was as exciting as it was challenging. The Owner directive was to open up a functional but very choppy master bathroom, creating an open plan, classicly finished master bath. The home owner wanted the elegant, freestanding tub and chandelier to be the focal point...presenting the challenge. When in use, the tub creates a 1,200 lb point load in the middle of an 18' span, directly over a formal living room below. In order to solve this, we supplemented the existing joists, with 14' steel plates, from end to end. This allowed the tub to be suspended, mid span, and provide the owner with the focal point that they were looking for. Opposite the tub, is an incredible walk in shower, formerly, a closet. The contrast of the chrome Kohler fixtures and the extensive Carerra White marble create a wonderful escape for our client... Thank you for viewing

It has been said that the most difficult person to work for is yourself. That anecdote certainly held for this project, designed by Myron, co-owner of Hom, Inc. and constructed by Hom, Inc. Myron designed this home as a case study for a potential spec house project. The home has only one interior bearing wall and very few beams, which leaves a blank canvas for the entire floor plan upstairs and down. Any of the interior walls can be removed or relocated to suit the lifestyle for any new homeowner. The home also features LP Smartside products on the exterior, conditioned crawl space, standing seam roof accents, reclaimed pine flooring, granite countertops, lighting by Shades of Light, a coffered living room ceiling, exposed beams in the vaulted master bedroom, custom built in cabinets and shelving in the mudroom and living room, walk in closets in each bedroom and much more. The structure of the home is also designed according to common lumber lengths and spans. By calculating allowable spans and using common dimensional lumber lengths, the home was designed so none of the floor joists or ceiling joists were required to be cut to fit. This feature of the design provides for a much more efficient and cost effective framing process. Myron currently lives in this house with his wife and children in the old section of Mill Quarter Plantation in Powhatan County.

Our client’s main bathroom boasted shades of 1960 yellow through-out. From the deep rich colour of the drop-in sinks and low profile bathtub to the lighter vanity cupboards and wall accessories to pale yellow walls and even the subdued lighting through to veining in the old linoleum floor and tub wall tiles. High gloss Carrara marble 24”x48” tiles span from the tub to the ceiling and include a built-in tiled niche for tucked away storage, paired with Baril brushed nickel Sens series shower fixtures and Fleurco 10mm shower doors. The same tiles in the shower continue onto the floor where we installed Schluter Ditra In-Floor Heat with a programmable thermostat. Custom cabinetry was built to allow for the incorporation of a sit-down make-up between his and her double bowl sinks as well as a tall linen tower with cupboards and drawers to offer lots of extra storage. Quartz countertops with undermount sinks and sleek single handle faucets in a subdued brushed nickel hue complete the look. A custom mirror was made to span the full length of the vanities sitting atop the counter backsplash.

This homeowner went from (3) 120V 2-lamp 64W T8 fluorescent lighting fixtures to these (3) new 120V LED 40W (64W equivalent) Energy Star rated lighting fixtures. The end result is a much brighter garage with LED fixtures that will last 50,000 hours, along with the added bonus of a 37.5% energy reduction. LED lighting fixtures have no bulbs to replace which makes them maintenance free for their life span. Lighting bulbs alone can be expensive and when you factor in electronic ballasts and lighting sockets, which you can also expect to replace over the years, maintenance costs add up quickly... making LED lighting an economical solution for your home's lighting. These LED lighting fixtures provide an atmosphere similar to a show room in terms of lighting output which makes them perfect for a garage or work space area. The initial investment, which can be expected to be double what the standard fluorescent lighting fixture would run you, is well worth the investment as these fixtures will eventually pay for themselves throughout their life span. The replacement of the three fluorescent lighting fixtures with LED lighting fixtures took less than two hours.

This 5,800-square-foot mass timber cottage sits on Lake of the Woods, Ontario, built directly on exposed granite bedrock with epoxy-anchored foundations. The structural system uses prefabricated Nordic laminated beams, columns, and cross-laminated timber panels — the CLT roof deck serves as both the structural diaphragm and the finished interior ceiling, eliminating the need for added ceiling framing and keeping the profile clean and slim. Long spans between columns open up the lake-facing glazing without obstruction, while large cantilevered roof overhangs define the exterior silhouette. 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, designed by Nelson Architecture Inc., completed 2018.
